I am writing in support of Erin Herbig, candidate for the Maine State Senate District 11. Throughout the nine years that I have known Erin, she has been committed to helping the people and businesses of Waldo County. A native of Belfast, Erin is an honest, positive-thinking and tireless advocate for the rights of all people regardless of income or family background.

Erin has served in the Maine House of representatives for the past eight years, most recently as the Majority Leader.  During that time she has been committed to implementing policies to help move Waldo County forward, and focused on creating better jobs and better opportunities for the people of rural Maine.

As a Maine Senator she will continue her commitment to implementing good policies, and to maintaining her excellent working relationships with legislators on both sides of the aisle, always striving to move Waldo County forward!  

Over the years that I have known Erin Herbig, I have watched her become the great community leader and citizen advocate that she is today.  I will be casting my vote for her and urge you to do so as well.
